Topgunz Leveling Kit
Hey guys,
Just received my 2.5" leveling kit from Topgunz and I'm having a hell of a time installing the damn thing! I have to admit, I don't do much with respect to mechanic work but I figured I could do this. The biggest problem I'm having is getting the upper control arm back on, it seems like its under alot of pressure as I'm pulling it down to try and reattach it. I was able to install the spacers and all the other stuff, it's just getting it back together now that the strut assembly is 2+" taller. I know there are a few members on here with the same kit, and I was hoping they would have some input on this. Thanks a bunch guys!

RE: Topgunz Leveling Kit
i dont have that kit, but getting it back together wasnt a big problem for me, it was seperating the upper control arm from the spindle.....that was a pain in the ***. a lot of guys on here have the TGC kit though and im sure will be able to help. check in the DIY section on the leveling kit. that may help, may not....good luck, i just had to push through and make things fit together and squueze in and any other hard **** that happened when i was doing it.
did you get shock relocators? or are you going to buy longer ones?
